Leading the Flow: KBL Commits to Sustainability on Global Water Days

Every year as we celebrate the World Water Day (March 22nd), World Plumbing Day (March 11th), and Earth Hour (March 24th), Kirloskar Brothers Limited (KBL) and its subsidiaries emerge as the key players in the drive towards a more sustainable future. For over a century, KBL has been synonymous with fluid management solutions, and today, its commitment extends beyond pumps and valves to championing responsible water and resource use.

Leading the Charge

World Water Day and Beyond

On World Water Day, KBL reiterates its commitment to Sustainable Development Goal 6 (SDG 6): Ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all. Through its efficient pumps, irrigation solutions, and community initiatives, KBL strives to bridge the water gap and ensure equitable access to this vital resource.
